Precap: Pratha and Samar Singh introduced. Prithvi realising that his sister has grown up and decided to get her married to Samar😊
Chapter 5
As Prithvi and Samar arrived in the palace gardens, prithvi stopped to admire the view. Aside from the bedroom he shared with his wife and daughter this was his favourite place in the palace because he found a piece of his wife everywhere he looked.
He could see her in the fountain that they had created to celebrate the birth of their angel, smell her in the fragrance of the roses she had lovingly planted and felt her touch everytime he sat on the swing he had designed for her on their wedding aniversary.
Samar turned to speak to Prithvi but saw from the smile on his face and the faraway look in his eyes that his friends was once again lost in thoughts of his wife. Samar wondered if he had the same smile and look in his eyes when he thought about Pratha, as his thoughts once again returned to her Samar decided to let Prithvi enjoy his moments so that he could find the one responsible for his own joy.
Turning to speak to his friend Prithvi realised that he had been abandoned, and wondered if he had offended Samar with his lack of attention, and then laughed as he realised that maybe his friend understood more than he thought and had decided to find the woman responsible for his own day dreaming rather than waiting for Prithvi. Taking a last look up at his bedroom window Prithvi went off to find his daughter.
'Nan-da-ni' 'Nan-da-ni' Pratha watched proudly as her lovely little neice wearing a blindfold raced around the garden fearlossly secure in the knowledge that those around her would never let anything bad happen to her.
'Pukaleya Taathaa' Nandani cried in happiness as Sunjum stopped long enough to be caught by her. Pratha watched on as Nandani ran to her other chaacha's pulling Sunjum along with her.
Stopping at the fountain to get some water for her neice, Pratha admired the angel design etched around the side of the fountain and knew it represented her Brother and his family, but what made her even happier was that her brother and sister in law had added an angel for each member of the family even those who had been and were still against their relationship. Taking the water Pratha turned around and automatically dropped the water.
'BHAIYA' Pratha shouted as she ran over to her brothers who was throwing Nandani up into the air and taking it in turns to catch her again in their arms.
'Kiya Hai Pratha Behna, Chand asked innocently as Pratha lifted Nandani on to her hip.
'Kiya Hai, Humko pooch rahe hai, Bhabi ko baatha?' Pratha replied finding it hard to stay cross, when he lifted his hands to hold both his ears.
'Nandani, ne humko ' Chand started to say but was interupted bu Pratha
'Aacha tho ab Nandani thuj par raj karthi hai' Pratha replied
'Nay' Chand started again but was once again interputted
'Ha, sub ko malum hai ke is mehel mein prithviraj chauhan ki raj Nandani Chauhan sey booth cum hai' Samar answered as he joined the group and handed Pratha some water for Nandani.
She was going to be a great mother Samar thought as he watched Pratha lay Nandani down in her arms to help her drink the water while absently brushing her hair.
'Such kaha tum ney' Bhaiya nei such much issie ko laadli bana diya' Pratha answered as she kissed her neice and set her down on the grass.
'Aacha, tho aap laadli nahi ti' Samar asked
'Ti or ab be hai' Pratha answered honestly and then blushed when she realised what she had said.
Before he could answer Samar's attention was caught by the little girl hugging his knees
'Thaatha' she cried pulling on his legs.
Bending down so he was eye to eye with her Samar said
'Thaatha nahi, Ch-aacha Kaho'
'Thaatha nahi, Th-aatha kaho' nandani repeated sweetly making the group laugh
Samar tried again 'Cha-Cha' again Nandani repeated it back to him ' Tha-tha'.
Looking at the smile on her face Samar said with a laugh ' Aacha Baba, aaj se hum Thaatha ban gaye' as he picked her up and carried her over to the baby swing.
Reaching the group Prithvi watched in happiness as his friends and family took it in turns pushing his princess on the swing that they had all built together specially for her when she had nearly fallen off the swing he had presented to her mother. It was at moments like this that Prithvi was thankful for the things he had in life and knew that inspite of all the bad thing he wouldn't change anything about his life because he knew that both the joys and sorrows in his life had helped make him into the man he was today.
Seeing her father Nandani lifted her arms up to Chand who helped her down and they watched as he ran over to Prithvi who lifted her up onto his shoulders. Once she had grown bored of playing with her fathers hair while he talked with his friends she leaned forward to put her little hands under Prithvi's chin so she look in his eyes and then spoke.
'Papa Gori' she asked him wearing a mini replica of his Sanyo's smile and which Prithvi knew meant that he would give her anything she wanted.
So without worrying or caring where he was or who might be watching Delhi's Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan made sure his daughter was holding on tight and then got down on all fours and started crawling across the grass, the only important thing for him was the sound of his daughters laughter as she urged him to go faster.
'Maharaj' Prithvi looked up from the pair of feet infront of him and saw one of his soliders standing there.
'Kya baath hai' Prithvi asked even as he started to stand making sure his daughter was secure around his neck.
'Maharaj Jaichand nai sandesh beaga'
As soon as he heard his name Prithvi felt his muscles tighten and his heart rate increase, the joy that he had felt moments ago evaporated.
Lifting his daughter down from his shoulders, Prithvi held her in his arms needing to have that physical contact with her to assure himself she was okay,
'Tum Jo.' Prithvi said to the solider and then realising he had taken his frustration out on the solider made an effort to even his voice and continued on ' Hum a rahe hai'
Waiting until the solider had left Prithvi looked at his daughter and felt his heart catch when she smiled and then leaned forward and kissed him on the forehead the same way that he had been doing to her since the day she had been placed into his arms. Tightening his arms around her Prithvi held her close and sent up a silent pray to heaven that she should always be this happy and innocent.
'Nandani' Challo app Sunjum gori hai, aacha; Prithvi told her
'Aacha, papa' his daughter answered as Sunjum stepped forward to take her into his arms.
'Meri Pyari Nandani' Prithvi said playfully pinching her cheek to see her smile again.
As he turned to leave he shared a look with Sunjum and knew that his friend had understood when he nodded and said ' Sub Kuch Teek Tak ho ga', feeling reassured Prithvi turned to follow the solider.
Feeling uneasy and unable to leave without a final look to make sure that she was okay Prithvi turned around again and saw that everything was how it should have been Nandani was happily sitting on Sunjum's back directing him,Samar and Pratha were on the swing together,and Chand, Arjun and Pundir were all practising, feeling reassured Prithvi turned to head back inside the Mehel, but as he reached the entrance to the Palace he heard shouting and turned just in time to see the arrow hit Sunjum.
Guys thats it. I hope you enjoy the update
